Hex Aired From 17 October 2004 – 18 December 2005 On Sky One.
The 19 episodes of this two-season British series originally aired from the fall of 2004 to the winter of 2005. From its outset, Hex appears to be the story of Cassie Hughes, an attractive but withdrawn young woman who enrolls at a boarding school but can't quite seem to fit into the social milieu, but the second season shifts the focus from the departing Cassie to a new heroine, Ella Dee.
the story:
Hex is set at a remote English school, Medenham Hall, which occupies the former manor house and grounds of the McBain estate. It was the site of an 18th Century witchcraft scandal in which the female members of the line, the Medenham Witches, were tried and executed. Cassie, who raised herself in a single-parent household caring for her mentally unstable mother, has latent telekinetic and clairvoyant abilities that are awakened when she touches an antique vase that had been used in voodoo rituals by the Medenham Witches. Her roommate, Thelma (who harbors an ill-concealed crush on Cassie), discovers that Cassie is a descendant of the Medenham Witches. Cassie has startling visions and dreams that she strives to interpret, and also struggles with controlling her growing telekinetic powers, which she is only able to summon in times of stress.
In the second season, a new student arrives at Medenham: Ella Dee. Thelma, who has been murdered but whose ghost remains close to Cassie, is mildly attracted until she realizes that Ella can see her. There are other anomalies: Ella's tuition is paid by a corporation and her family background is unknown. She also seems to know entirely too much about Cassie and the demon Azazeal stalking her. It is quickly revealed that Ella is definitely not what she seems. She is 445 years old and is also a witch and has been hunting Azazeal for centuries. So far, she has been very successful in preventing Azazeal from begetting a son by a mortal witch. This time, however, Ella was too late. Her mission: kill Azazeal's offspring.
